broke a laptop
I broke a few-month old Dell Inspiron laptop (don't know the model) at work today. It belongs to my boss, but the company bought it. I dropped it and the lcd is all screwed up now. How much do you think it would cost to fix? what should I do? The first thing I blurted out is "I can pay for it" but honestly it would take every penny I have, and I'm getting married in May, and that money is for the wedding. WTF?

Maybe give some free advice about: Computers?
You can get GREAT warranties from Dell. Since the computer is only a few months old, my guess is that it would still be under warranty. That is, if your boss got a warranty for it, which he/she definitely should have because things like this do happen. If it is under warranty, Dell will most likely replace it free of charge. If it's not, don't tell your boss that you'll pay for it. It's not like you smashed it on purpose. I don't think that you are liable for what happened. Try to get out of paying for it if you are told to. It's your boss's fault for not getting the warranty, not yours. I have no idea how much it would cost, but I can't imagine it would be more than a few hundred dollars. Just pray that it's under warranty! Good luck!

It always cost alot to get anything of dell's fixed. so It might cost alot. but your company probably will pay for it. Accidents happen your not gonna be considered a criminal

hey, well accidents happen. what you said is the most common thing that anyone says when they break something that doesnt belong to them. you should set up a "payment plan" with your boss. tell him that every week or every month you will give him a payment. explain to him about the wedding situation and how your sort of extra low on cash because of it. you will eventually pay off the cost.
